I hope your not serious… Blake Griffin’s jump shot is average at best… Griffin is the most exciting 4 in the league maybe but Griffin is far from being as complete Love. With that said Love know’s Dirk and Gasol are PF right… Love isn’t even the best PF in the Western conference… What a clown.

Sun, 15 Jan 2012 23:13:34 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-67285wow some great power forwards, Aldridge is definitely one of the best, obviously have to consider Love and Dirk and Griffin as well…check for power rankings at http://www.dailygrindsports.com , read about Kobe this week http://dailygrindsports.com/2012/01/15/the-kobe-agenda/

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 22:32:43 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66708If your teammates are worse, doesn’t that give you a disadvantage? Then the other team can double you if you’re the best shooter and work away from you if you’re the best defender, & lastly, box you out with two people if you’re the best rebounder. Face it, he IS THE BEST PF in the league RIGHT NOW. Pau had his day, Amare’ had his day, Tim Duncan is possibly the best ever at this point, & Blake Griffin can dunk. Shoot a consistent jumper before you jump into the discussion of best at your position.

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 21:30:00 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66696I agree. I thought Dirk finally got some earned respect last year but I guess I was wrong. People are still talking the same old no defense crap as if he hadn’t improved from his rookie year.

Wed, 11 Jan 2012 21:25:24 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66694So you think KLove having worse teammates doesn’t help him bolster his stats?

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 18:55:09 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66443Aldridge is a much better defender than Love. Watch Love’s help rotations, when he does them. He’s better this season, but he does not give up rebounding position to help. Guys in his own locker room call him selfish. Plus, LMA has really stepped up his leadership role on a team that is winning.

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 18:03:29 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66432hmmm…so early into the season…but hey, what the heck. i love lists/polls…

Helin are you just trying to justify your choice of Aldridge for the All-Star game ? Your statement that Aldridge needs to be on the team because ” Portland needs representation , ” is truly one of the all time boo boo’s you’ve ever written . Aldridge is good , but no All-Star !
True power forwards : Kevin Love and Blake Griffin .
Kevin Durant and Dirk Nowitzski are spin off proto type 3 -4’s .

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 16:17:20 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66409Mythor. Best pg in the game is Rose. He’ll have a ring soon. Dirk is best 4 in the game bc he carried his team to a championship unlike the others mentioned. Pao plays the 4 but he’s a true center.

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 15:47:06 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66403Dirk couldn’t respond to Love’s comments because he was too busy meeting the President to celebrate his NBA championship and Finals MVP.

I get the whole “Aldridge is playing the best right now” angle, but here’s a question: You have to win a game tonight, and can only choose 1 PF to plug into your lineup – who do you choose? You choose the toughest man to guard in the NBA, Dirk.

I’ll admit that watching Aldridge play in the playoffs versus Dallas last year, I was very impressed. He might be my #2 guy after Dirk. Not enough people get to watch him play, but he was dominant in that series.

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 14:14:41 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66390Love is just saying you have to believe you are the best. “I think you have to believe that you’re the best.” Its just positive affirmation.

The columnist distorted the meaning, but YOU don’t have to.

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 13:13:01 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66386How come last season dirk wins the championship and is up for the MVP award and now ten games into the season everyone forgets??

1. dirk
2. pau
3. lamarcus
4. kevin love
5. Zach randolph

Blake griffin will be a lot higher in a year or so but right now he is mostly just a great athlete and doesn’t have the same talent as the other guys up there.

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 04:53:28 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66356Who’s the best point guard in the game? Because if having rings is your criterion, it’s gotta be either Jason Kidd, Derek Fisher, Rajon Rondo, or Tony Parker. And if it’s based on the # of rings, that means it’s Fisher.

Tue, 10 Jan 2012 04:47:39 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=38848#comment-66353Then you need to check again, because Gasol and Nowitzki both play the four. Love is good but part of the reason he rebounds so well is he doesn’t play with any other good rebounders and he isn’t concerned with playing any kind of defense. You can’t call someone the best all-around anything if they don’t play half the game.
